Astrology Not Prophecy.

By Editor

A LETTER comes to this office saying that a man has been lecturing in a certain place on the third angel's message, using a chart prepared by a certain “Professor” to prove by the conjunction of planets that fearful times are coming on the earth.
We object to this mixing of things so dissimilar. If any wish to follow the astrologers and star-gazers, Isa. 47:12–14, they are welcome to; but they shall not put astrology on a par with the sure word of prophecy, especially in advocacy of the “present truth” without a protest from us. This is not treating the words of Revelation with that respect which they deserve.
